Frequently Asked Questions
Answers for prompt engineers, developers, and AI agents.
Do you scrape emails? ↓
No. We focus entirely on extracting highly accurate, public profile data (Bio, Experience, Skills, Education) to keep our API fast, reliable, and compliant.
How fast are profile lookups? ↓
Frequently requested profiles are served instantly from our ultra-low latency edge cache (under 100ms) while keeping profile data fresh within a 7-day window.
How do autonomous agents connect to Lakome MCP? ↓
Agents connect via HTTP POST to /tools/extract_linkedin_profile or via SSE protocol stream at /mcp/sse using the Authorization: Bearer <LAKOME_API_KEY> header.
What profile capacity is included in the Pro Plan? ↓
The Pro Agent Plan includes 1,000 profile extractions per month. Additional top-up credit packs can be purchased anytime via Dodo Payments for accounts with an active subscription.
Can users top-up without an active subscription? ↓
No. You must have an active monthly Pro Plan subscription to activate and consume top-up credit packs.
How does the 3-request free trial work? ↓
Every unique IP address gets 3 free trial extractions without needing an API key. Once exhausted, the endpoint returns an HTTP 403 Forbidden status code guiding you to acquire a paid key at mcp.lakome.in.
Is Lakome compliant with European GDPR & EU AI Act standards? ↓
Yes. We process exclusively publicly accessible B2B professional data under GDPR Article 6(1)(f) and maintain full compliance with EU AI Act risk mitigation standards.
Are captchas or IP blocks an issue? ↓
No. Lakome utilizes dedicated residential proxy networks and automated fingerprint rotation to guarantee a 99.99% success rate.

Yes. Lakome works out-of-the-box with standard Python and TypeScript MCP SDKs, AutoGPT, CrewAI, LangChain, and custom HTTP agent loops.

The response is returned as a dense, token-optimized Markdown report containing Full Name, Current Role, Company, Location, Headline, Bio Summary, Top Past Work Experiences, and Skills.
How does Lakome reduce LLM prompt costs? ↓
By stripping HTML markup and JSON key redundancy, Lakome produces dense Markdown that uses 65% fewer tokens than raw JSON payloads.
